Carmakers’ Cool Customs Cruise Vegas for SEMA 2024
Electric hot rods join the traditional combustion-powered rides for this year’s SEMA show in Las Vegas.
This year’s edition of the SEMA show at the Las Vegas Convention Center boasts more than 2,400 exhibiting brands, including 580 first-time exhibitors. There are more than 1,400 vehicles on display across the show’s 1.2 million square feet of space.
Most of these exhibitors will offer some specialized part or gadget targeting a specific community in car culture, but the real interest comes from the carmakers themselves. The show cars they build for SEMA point to their future product thinking, even if these show cars aren’t really previews of production plans.
Ram trucks, Chrysler’s Mopar Parts division, Toyota, Kia, and Nissan were the high-profile factory participants this year. While SEMA was traditionally focused more on coupes and sedans for the street, the popularity of trucks and SUVs gives this year’s show more of an off-road flavor.
